In addition to the prayer bracelets people are wearing for us a group of men have pledged their support of our family by growing out their whiskers while waiting for Heather and the kids to come home. We know that when men grow beads they get some questions or comments about it. Growing the whiskers allows people the opportunity to talk about international adoption and our God driven experience to get our children when they are asked about it. I am praying this opens up the opportunity to speak out the Lord in situations you may not have otherwise. It's also a reminder for prayers. At the end of our journey we'd love to hear how many conversations and testimony's it has resulted in! Thanks to all the guys out there participating!!! Please email me pictures at allaboutabigail2009@yahoo.com if I don't have one already. If you'd like to participate all you have to do is start growing those beautiful mutton chops and be sure to send us a picture once and a while so we can post the updated growth!!! And yes you are allowed to trim. :) Thanks for loving our family just as we are!
